Hey Cedrin, here's the spreadsheet from your log:

 

What these numbers mean:

Basically, your rotation is favoring Consecration way too much. It does do a ton of damage when you're dealing with high vengeance, but it also has a large CD and doesn't generate any survivability. It kept your expected DPS close to the maximum, however not following the rotation means you have a bunch of holes in the rotation that normally wouldn't be there. To maximize that damage, you should follow the rotation: CS, Judgement, Filler, CS, Filler, Judgement, CS, Filler, Filler.

 

Without those Holy Power generators being at the front of your rotation, it also opens up a large loss in Survivability, since you generate much less Holy Power throughout the fight. The purpose of the haste build is so that you can get as much holy power as possible, so make sure you're using those short CDs before anything else.

 

You would deal 11% more damage to follow the rotation perfectly, and 42% more survivability from all the holy power you would gain.

 

It's really tough to get the rotation in, since some things look like they will be off CD/still be on CD because of different CD lengths. It's very hard to be perfect, you're doing a pretty good job.

 

 

Note to everyone reading:

There was a change in the rotation recently, as Theck did some more simulations on the rotation to show that HW is actually more important than the T6 ability. The long CD of T6 won't be effected too much overall, but it will allow you to squeeze out an extra Holy Wrath. Plus when HW can stun, that's just a bonus.

Thanks for the work you did. I will work on improving. Currently haven't had any issues with staying alive. I haven't been taking much damage lately, but Im sure that will change eventually.
